This reel showcases some of the stories I have covered around the world as a Special News Correspondent.

I have covered many other world and local events as Photographer-Editor, including the fall of the Berlin wall, an Eastern Europe tour on the last days of Communism in 1988-1989 through Poland, Rumania, and Czechoslovakia.




On May 20th, 2013, one of the most devastating tornados in history struck Moore, Oklahoma. A team from Telemundo 39 in Dallas traveled immediately and made it just in time to broadcast live that night. The team provided live coverage for the station group and the different news programs of the Telemundo Network for the following days.

In 2013 there was a crisis at the border with thousands of families from Central America coming to the United States.

Cultural News Series







Telemundo 39 sent two VJ’s (Erik Mora & Fernando Mejia) to cover the super bowl 51 in Houston, Texas.

While other stations have dozens of technicians, producers, and reporters, between the two of us, we provide daily content for our different shows.

This type of coverage is only possible when you have professionals that know what they want and know what they are doing at all times.
